Spectacular Cityscape Cake

Cities fascinate. Whether it's the latest superhero saving the world, a story of making it big, or even a simple love story, inevitably a fabulous city seems to serve as the backdrop. So, too, can a city sitting on a multi-tiered cake be the showpiece of a magnificent event. Make the buildings as seen here, or create a city you know well â€“ the choices are endless.

Serves 60.

Step 1: Make Buildings Several Days In Advance

Several days in advance, tint 30 oz. rolled fondant gray. If desired, knead 1 tablespoon Gum-Tex into gray fondant. Roll out 1/16 in. thick. With Cutter/Embosser, cut various sizes and shapes of buildings (project as pictured includes 65 buildings); place on cornstarch-dusted parchment paper to dry.
